I just completed the last of my rigging of my Old Town Predator 13. I have a youtube video feel free to leave comments of what you like or would change. Sorry for the poor Video quality An I should have shot it landscape. Live and learn right.

Congratulations on your kayak creation and your first youtube video for your new channel! All that electrical wiring is nice, elegant, and convenient but would be a corrosion nightmare for my style of offshore fishing. The less wires in the humid hull, the better. I have to change out the fishfinder wires more often than I care to, thus all other accessories are self-contained "waterproof" disposables that are easily replaced when they corrode out.

Thanks for the Tip I used waterproof connectors on the switches but I feel I may still have issues. It's certainly a work in progress. May tear out all the wiring and redo it all with some sort of closed system. I also may give this to my wife I am eyeballing a Hobie PA14 with 180 drive was looking at the 360 but understand it has some design flaws that need to be worked out.
